Abstract

A method and apparatus for controlling access to documents retained by a document management and collaboration system is disclosed. The document management and collaboration system may generate one or more suggested privileges associated with one or more users. An access control policy may specify whether system-generated user privileges may be enforced. If they are enforced, access to one or more document may be made subject to the generated privileges.
